The theme chosen by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics for National Nutrition Month 2020 is Eat Right,
Bite by Bite!
I am a National Nutrition Month fan. This year’s theme provides numerous opportunities to teach nutrition for all ages. From our children's first bite, picky eaters, teen and adult choices, cultural influences, disability feeding, and aging.
"The theme’s rhyme and simple food
treatment not only appeals to kids and kids-at-heart but “bite by bite” also
supports the philosophy that every little bit (or bite!) of nutrition is a step
in the right direction. Small goals/changes can have a cumulative healthful
effect. Nutrition doesn't have to be overwhelming.
Most importantly, Eat Right, Bite by Bite is fun,
positive, kid-friendly, inclusive of and adaptable for all eating patterns and
cultures, and accessible and easy to understand."
